Tried it on last week, an absolutely stunning piece!! Torn between the diver on bracelet or the 41mm Royal Oak w/black dial. Diver seems much more versatile for some reason IMO.
I had some trouble with the buckle trying to get the pin in the rubber strap, I don't know if it's me or what but it was a small hassle trying to get it in (no jokes please hahaha), anyone else have this issue? Also, how much $$$ does the bracelet go for? Thanks! Here are some pics:

Hello RFFG. Have to say the Diver looks great on you. I will pick the Diver over the RO 41mm if I have to choose but the best is to own both!
The buckle strap isn't that hard to put on with some practice. After inserting the pin into the hole, push down the rubber strap so that the whole pin goes fully thru, then press the pin down and it will folds down naturally. Ok... A steel bracelet is still faster to put on. Contact your local APSC. They should be able to quote you the price. |

Yes Ben does take some amazing shots. You should see the ones he showed me!
The Diver is a wonderful beauty, a worthy piece to acquire someday! |

I agree with Ben, RFFG. I'd go Diver all the way, only because I owned the 15400 and while it's a great watch, I just couldn't get the diver off my mind. It's just amazing in every way.

For a black dial the larger Tapisserie of the Diver is the best choice, if you wanted something dressier then the white dial RO would be better.

Swapping them over requires 1 off 1.5mm screwdriver and some blue loctite - oh, and a little care not to scratch things. Depsite the other thread, there is no need for 2 screwdrivers, each screw does not have 2 ends connected together, there are 4 separate screws. I changed mine a couple of days ago! |

The other great thing is that you can sell it later for RRP, almost, if you don't like it. |

This thread has rekindled my love for Diver! Regret selling it 2 years ago for some stupid reason kicking myself for it now and missing it very much now!
